Moderators Melba23 Posted October 4, 2012 Moderators Share Posted October 4, 2012 gcue, This works for me: $sString = "something,something - THIS,something,soemthing" $sNewString = StringRegExpReplace($sString, "(?i).*s-s(.*)(,.*){2}", "$1") MsgBox(0, "Extract", $sNewString) Any good?

BrewManNH Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) I got this. #include <array.au3> $string = "something,something - THIS,something,soemthing" $Result = StringRegExp($string, "W(w{1,100}),", 3) ; pattern = Match any non-word character, followed by up to 100 word characters but only if those are followed by a comma _ArrayDisplay($Result) I changed the pattern to this and it works just as well. #include <array.au3> $string = "something,something - THIS,something,soemthing" $Result = StringRegExp($string, "W(w+),", 3) ; pattern = Match any non-word character, followed by up to any number of word characters but only if those are followed by a comma _ArrayDisplay($Result) Edited October 4, 2012 by BrewManNH If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise.
